Better Call Saul

[dronepool]

Walking Dead is good and all but I'm personally a lot more hyped up for the Better Call Saul premier than the continuation of TWD / Season 5

I'm hoping it turns out good, and doesn't come off too much as a desperate attempt to use Breaking Bad's popularity for more ratings/money.

[road doggy dogg]

Next week, folks. Who's pumped?

[Lock Jaw]

Ending was pretty TIGHT TIGHT TIGHT YEAH, but most of it was pretty "ehhh".

Breaking Bad had a "theme" "message" "whatever" right from the first episode. Not sure what kind of show this is other than "the search for more money".

[dronepool]

Love it.

[Juan]

Thought it was really good

[Destor]

Enjoyable. Sadly its air time conflicts with my schedule so I wont be watching anymore but the pilot was solid.

[Innovator]

It just felt good to have Saul and Mike back

[road doggy dogg]

Enjoyable. Sadly its air time conflicts with my schedule so I wont be watching anymore but the pilot was solid.

is this seriously a thing that happens in 2015 still

[Big Vic]

Yeah I don't have a DVR either.

[road doggy dogg]

awful

[RP]

I thought it was horrible

[Crimson]

Kinda bland. But the ending gave me hope maybe things will pick up. I'll give it one more shot.

[Tazz Dan]

I enjoyed it. Slow build throughout, no different to how Breaking Bad was delivered to us to start with. My biggest fear with the show was that they'd make it too much like BB, but other than that feel of the show I mentioned, I think it stood out as its own. Really looking forward to the rest of the series.

[RP]

No its pretty bad. I'm disappointed.

[dronepool]

I switched from RAW to watch it, awesome.

[Lock Jaw]

What kind of disease is it that makes you unable to be around electronics or anything with a charge? Also, is Chuck supposed to be his dad, or what?

Anyways, the Tucco stuff was pretty sweet. Other than that, still not sure what kind of show this is going to be, of what its "message"/"theme" is other than making more $.

[Destor]

is this seriously a thing that happens in 2015 still

Yeah no dvr :-/

[Big Vic]

Is Saul really going to be able to talk Tucco down from doing anything Tucco wants to?

[McLegend]

That really was some good lawyering in the desert. That scene was Breaking Badesque.

I think Chuck is his brother, but that has not been stated. Also I think might be a paranoid schizophrenic or something along those lines. They haven't given a name for his disease, and I feel like Saul would have an easier time getting a buyout for a disease then he would for something that's psychosomatic.

Also really thought we were going to see Walt's house in the pilot when Saul was driving around on his phone in some neighborhood.

[Tazz Dan]

Two episodes in, and I'm still loving it!

[OverTaker]

Real solid first two episodes. :y: Biznatch! :D

[Triple A]

Sweet...

<3 it

[Triple A]

Yeah no dvr :-/

AMC has the full episodes on their website

edited out the exclamation point from "Better Call Saul!" in the thread title

This is on Netflix over here, new episode every Tuesday. Watched the first 2 episodes and was pretty pleased with it. It has a similar feel to BB.

I can honestly watch an hour of Jimmy trying to get past Mike

[rad dggy dg]

Good stuff so far

[Big Vic]

fell asleep and missed the ep was it good?

[Lock Jaw]

Yeah, was good.

[Tazz Dan]

The Breaking Bad-esque cliffhangers are pissing me off haha. Nah, I'm really loving this show, this weeks episode was brilliant.

[Lock Jaw]

Ha ha at the toilet.

Can't wait for next week.

[weather vane]

Love this show

[Jura]

It's all good, man

[dronepool]

Mmm yummy

[Tazz Dan]

This is easily the best TV show going at the moment. Equal with Suits.

[McLegend]

That shit was deep.

[Lock Jaw]

Excellent episode

[Tazz Dan]

I concur. Also, I just wanna say, I don't feel Mike gets the credit he deserves in BB or this. Great character :y:

[Lock Jaw]

Betsy Kettleman be crazy

[OverTaker]

SO WTF CHUCK?

[Jura]

With the most recent episode I wonder if this is the beginning of Saul Goodman and the end of Jimmy McGill. On another note, what if they do another spin-off with Mike Ehrmantraut's character before he came to Albuquerque. With him already old and doing a prequel where he actually looks older is a problem but they could do an Arrow type thing where half the show is Mike's younger self in flashbacks.

[Savio]

Lost interest in this show when Saul was able to convince Tuco not to kill those 2 skaters. #ThatWouldn'tHappen

[McLegend]

Savior, that's one of the dumbest things you have ever done.

[Savio]

I probably would have kept watching if it wasn't on Mondays. Ugh Mondays.

[Innovator]

Are you in ISIS?

[Savio]

Not currently

[weather vane]

Love thissss

[Corporate CockSnogger]

Bit underwhelming finale, but the season as a whole was great. Exceeded my expectations.

[Requiem]

Wait, that was the season finale?

Didn't even realize. Yeah, pretty underwhelming way to finish a season. I'm worried that this show just isn't going to be able to carry enough drama on its own without seeming like Breaking Bad. I really like it, but tbh, literally nothing major has really happened. Yeah, we're learning about Saul, and I like it, but I'm waiting for the hook. I'm waiting for the story that's going to carry this show through multiple seasons.

[Lock Jaw]

Solid episode, but lackluster season finale.

[Lock Jaw]

I think now that Saul has kinda of "snapped", become a "badass con machine" again, and is all "never again will I give up illegitimate money" it will be the driving force of the series going forward.

This season was kind of just getting a bunch of backstory and establishing things... I think next season (and on if it goes further) we will start really getting into Saul "breaking bad".

[McLegend]

What was the 1.6 million Saul was talking to Mike about?

When did that happen?

[OverTaker]

Happened about halfway through the season. Mike broke into one of Jimmy's clients' house and took the millions.

Can't wait for more from that cool motherfucking lawyer and bad ass motherfucking mike.

[Tazz Dan]

This show has been so much better than I ever hoped for, and I hoped for good things! Sure, I'll admit, it hasn't rushed into things, but neither did Breaking Bad..... And looked how good that show turned out!!!

I'm hoping the season finale turns Jimmy into the Saul Goodman "Suplex City" Bad-Ass Motherfucker that we're all waiting for :y:

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Wait, that was the season finale?

Breaking Bad usually did the same thing. THey would have the penultimate episode be the "BIG" episode where everything happened, and then the last episode was usually sort of a lesser "reaction" episode. Instead of giving you cliff hangers they give you the reaction to the big change.

[weather vane]

��������❤️

[weather vane]

Anybody in on season 2? Pretty good last episode.

[McLegend]

I have them all DVRed... Might catch up on them tomorrow

[Blue Demon]

I've been keeping up with it, and it's been a great show so far, even if you haven't watched or are familiar with, Breaking Bad.

[weather vane]

Not sure how people aren't jumping all over this. Good show.

[Triple A]

Liking season 2 a lot more than season 1 so far (I also liked season 1)

[Blue Demon]

Yeah, Season 1 set the tone really, and now they're really getting into the story. It was hilarious that they had the bell ring when Hector entered the diner

[Lock Jaw]

Thought this season started up "slow", but business has really picked up. Finale next week, should be good.

[weather vane]

Loving this show.

[Blue Demon]

Season 4 started this passed Monday, really digging it still.

[Lock Jaw]

Had no idea it started.... wonder if my DVR automatically recorded it.

EDIT- It did

[Ezra]

I will most likely just wait and binge.

[Destor]

I dont have means to watch AMC. Last year I purchased the season via amazon and watched it as it aired via fire stick. This year im going to wait for netflix.

[Jordan]

Oh boy we are four deep in season four? Great, I'll start binging soon. I love this show, so good in season three especially.

[Blue Demon]

Last night was episode 2

[OverTaker]

I'm hooked still!

[OverTaker]

Nice seeing all these breaking bad peeps returning. We are are nearing the BB timeline.

Lets speculate what Walt and Jesse are doing this moment in BCS..go!

Ill go.

Poor Walter is on his knees doing rim jobs

And Jesse is making chili p meth.

[Juan]

Rim jobs?

[OverTaker]

Lol for his boss "eyebrows" at the car wash

[OverTaker]

Walt's not breaking bad yet. He breaking his back.

[OverTaker]

Hello?? I can't believe its the end of season 4 already!

[Frank Drebin]

Slippin Jimmy < 'sall good, man

[OverTaker]

You're Goodman right!

[Seanny One Ball]

Jimmy is the man. The 9th episode in season 3 is an amazing how-to guide for manipulating old ladies.

I love it.

[Frank Drebin]

I wanted to cry w/ Irene. So painful what Jimmy does to her.

[Seanny One Ball]

It is awful...
I find the "you have no friends" thang pretty merciless at that age :lol:

Season 4 starts well.

I'm so delighted for Michael Mckean to have been a part of this. He has elevated this series from spin-off to absolute necessity.
Giancarlo Esposito is also essential to this as a separate yet connected entity... I loved every single second of him in BB but I have been craving that backstory. I just need a bit more.

[Lock Jaw]

Never finished season 4 because of my broken set-top box..... had to leave a bunch of unwatched episodes on it when I got it replaced....

[Seanny One Ball]

Yep, that was the only way to see it.

[Lock Jaw]

Well, when it comes to Netflix I'll watch it....

[Seanny One Ball]

It is on Netflix you berk

[Seanny One Ball]

Gus Fring is the scariest mofo on TV.

He sounded like the devil when he caught Nacho.

[Seanny One Ball]

God Damn... I really love Nacho as an example of a conflicted character. He's like a Hispanic Mike, and Mike is the man.

[Lock Jaw]

It is on Netflix you berk

Season 4 not in Canada yet I guess.

[Seanny One Ball]

Whaaaaaaaaat?!
Netflix is trippin dog because I'm watching it as we speak... in Scotland.

Scotland gets what Canada craves.

[OverTaker]

Yes I wonder what's gonna happen to Lalo, Nacho and Kim.

[Seanny One Ball]

The karaoke scene gave me goosebumps. I loved it.

[OverTaker]

Yeah I love Chuck but I thought he was an asshole sometimes. Who knows if that letter was really from him.
